Chapter 26: With a Flick of His Sleeve, He Conceals His Merits and Fame!

Radiance!

Explosive Golden Rain!

Song Jie didn't hesitate. He held up a massive golden orb with one hand and fiercely hurled it at the Winged Cang Wolf!

The Winged Cang Wolf was engaged in a fierce battle with Zhang Kong, completely unaware of the ambush from behind!

In an instant, the golden orb exploded, scattering golden raindrops all across the sky, continuously falling down.

The Winged Cang Wolf roared in anger, baring its fangs and tearing its flesh, covered in blood!

Moreover, these exploding golden raindrops had a burning effect, causing it unbearable pain!

At this moment, Zhang Kong and the others were ecstatic, their hearts filled with joy!

«Who the hell did that? Reinforcements?» a military officer exclaimed.

Boom!

Suddenly, another golden orb flew out rapidly, exploding once more on the Winged Cang Wolf.

Zhang Kong pinpointed the location of the person casting the spell, but it was obscured by a building.

Given the current situation, finding the caster wasn't as important as dealing with the Winged Cang Wolf!

Too fierce!

Everyone watched as one golden orb after another flew towards the Winged Cang Wolf, feeling an indescribable satisfaction!!

Zhang Kong quickly regained his composure, instructing the others to prevent the Winged Cang Wolf from escaping.

The Winged Cang Wolf was now covered in wounds. As it spotted Song Jie and charged at him, it was struck again!

Song Jie showed no fear, more than capable of handling a single Winged Cang Wolf.

Because he wasn't using high-level magic that required complex star constellations!

A novice mage only needed to connect seven stars in a star trail to cast a spell!

An intermediate mage had to connect forty-nine stars into seven star trails and then draw a star map to cast an intermediate spell!

A high-level mage needed to connect three hundred forty-three stars into forty-nine star trails, draw seven star maps, and then form a constellation to fully cast a high-level spell!

If one wasn't proficient in forming constellations, the demon could reach them before the high-level spell was completed, leading to their demise!

Even though Song Jie's magic was as powerful as high-level magic, he only needed to connect star trails to cast it!

Therefore, his casting speed was instantaneous!

Boom!

The entire sky was filled with golden raindrops. Even though the Winged Cang Wolf spotted Song Jie, it couldn't get close to him.

One high-level spell after another, and they only consumed novice mana!

If others knew, they would surely exclaim that it was too outrageous!

Under the bombardment of high-level magic, how could the Winged Cang Wolf withstand it!

Zhang Kong was stunned as well. Even he couldn't release high-level spells this quickly!

He showed a joyful expression: «Now it can't escape!»

This person had helped greatly. The Winged Cang Wolf was severely injured now, giving him an opportunity!

«Everyone, follow me, let's slaughter it and offer its blood to Bo City!» Zhang Kong ordered!

«Yes!»

Everyone was even more excited. Killing a commander-level demon was something they never dared to dream of before!

But now, it was different!

Roar!!

The Winged Cang Wolf opened its bloody mouth and roared, dazed by Song Jie's magic.

Moreover, Song Jie didn't give it any chance to catch its breath or escape!

One spell after another bombarded it, leaving it no room to escape!

«Kill it!» Zhang Kong charged forward, completing his magic constellation in an instant!

«Heavenly Flame Funeral!»

«Hellfire Stone!!»

He had noticed reinforcements arriving and needed to hold off the Winged Cang Wolf; this beast couldn't escape now!

Roar!!

The Winged Cang Wolf, already injured, was struck by Zhang Kong's high-level spell, suffering even more damage.

Seeing Zhang Kong surrounding it, it sensed something was wrong and tried to flee!

But Song Jie's «Explosive Golden Rain» suddenly struck again, exploding on its body!!

The Winged Cang Wolf was paralyzed!

Song Jie was like a high-level magic artillery, bombarding the Winged Cang Wolf without mercy!

It couldn't take it anymore!

Knowing that the Winged Cang Wolf was doomed and not wanting to expose himself, Song Jie decided to leave.

Soon after Song Jie left, reinforcements arrived, including two high-level mages.

«What are you two standing there for? Get over here and help!» Zhang Kong yelled.

The two new arrivals knew Zhang Kong well, often bantering during meetings.

One of them said, «Zhang Kong, you're something else, managing to injure the Winged Cang Wolf like this.»

Zhang Kong ignored him, focusing on the Winged Cang Wolf that was trying to escape.

With these two high-level mages' support, Zhang Kong found it much easier to deal with the Winged Cang Wolf.

Surrounded by them, the Winged Cang Wolf had no way to escape.

Finally, Zhang Kong ended the Winged Cang Wolf's miserable fight with high-level magic.

«Finally killed it.»

One of them sighed, exhausted.

«We rushed over as soon as we got the message, but we were still late.» He looked at Zhang Kong apologetically.

«I'm glad you made it,» Zhang Kong said, feeling much better after killing the Winged Cang Wolf.

With their help to clear the demons in Bo City, they could finally catch a break.

«You did well, this Winged Cang Wolf is no ordinary commander-level demon, and you managed to beat it up like this.» One of them praised with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhang Kong suddenly looked in a direction and flew over.

The two newcomers were puzzled, not knowing what Zhang Kong was searching for.

They flew over and asked, «Zhang Kong, what are you looking for?»

«Nothing.»

Zhang Kong shook his head.

He came to see if Song Jie was still there, but it was clear he had already left.

The magic bombardment earlier was vivid in his memory, still giving him chills.

So did the others who witnessed it!

…

At this moment, Song Jie was heading towards the safety barrier.

With the reinforcements clearing many demons, he faced no obstacles.

In Bo City, he had no relatives, only friends and classmates, essentially alone.

Soon, he returned to the safety barrier.

Seeing the residents of Bo City safe and sound, he sighed in relief.

«Brother Jie, are you hurt?» Zhang Xiaohou hurried over, concerned.

«No.»

«Brother Fan told me everything, you guys are awesome! Why didn't I follow you!» Zhang Xiaohou said.

Mo Fan had told Zhang Xiaohou about their escape and meeting Tang Yue…

In short, he didn't reveal Song Jie's secret.

«Are you guys okay?» Song Jie asked.

«We're fine, we were brought to the safety barrier early on,» Zhang Xiaohou replied.

«This way, He Yu is alive, and those who shouldn't have died didn't…» Song Jie sighed in relief.

Zhang Xiaohou looked at Song Jie's relieved expression and asked, «Brother Jie, what's wrong?»

Song Jie smiled, shaking his head. «Nothing.»

He turned and looked towards Bo City, knowing this disaster was nearing its end.

Zhang Xiaohou walked over, standing shoulder to shoulder with Song Jie. «If Instructor Zhang Kong hadn't noticed something was wrong and had the city mages escort us, we might have died in this disaster.»

Turning to Song Jie, he asked, «Brother Jie, I want to become a military mage to protect more people like them. Will you support me?»

…
